Intelligent manufacturing templates for CNC machine programming

Abstract

The main purpose of the work is to present the method of preparing special production templates in the CAM program assuming the automation of CNC machine programming. The template is developed according to the unique ACPUT method - automatic CAM programming using machining templates, consisting of a combination of knowledge engineering and special CAM program tools to minimize the time during the design of the technological process. In developing the templates, the ontology of the technological process in the field of milling machining used in the selected enterprise was used. The effectiveness of the automatic programming process of CNC machines using production templates has been described, on the example of the process of manufacturing matrix tooling used in the welding process.
